NDS queso: historical arm disassembler (GBA/NDS) 🧀

16 Upvotes

(AI disclosure: the disassembler was written by hand; the build scripts and github workflows were built with AI - I REALLY don't wanna learn powershell or github actions lol)

queso is an arm disassembler prioritizing historical accuracy on older versions for emulation and retro computing. There are cli, web, vendorable Golang and vendorable C versions available, hex string and file inputs, and a ton of customizable options including custom register names, address offsets, and arm versions (ARMv1 - ARMv5TE).

Rules

Keep it civil
Follow Reddit rules, be polite to each other, and don't use slurs or abusive language.
Keep it on topic (emulator development, not emulator usage)
Don't post things related to using emulators. This is for emulator developers. While decomps and recomps are interesting, they are not appropriate for this sub, and you should instead post to r/decomps or r/recomps
No vibecoded projects
No vibecoded projects (projects where the majority of the code was written by AI) or links to articles produced by AI. This sub is for human developers, not managers of robots.
AI disclosure is required
If AI is used in a project, the post MUST contain a clear disclosure at the TOP of the post explaining to what extent AI was used, and where. This should be a best effort disclosure, when in doubt you should be as detailed as possible.
No low-effort posts
No low-effort posts. If you are linking to a project, you should include a description of what the project is and some details about it. If you want people to be able to engage with you about your project, you should provide them the necessary context about it.
No posts written by AI
All content in a post MUST be written by a human. If you are not comfortable writing in English, you MAY use an AI translation tool, but you MUST disclose that fact and/or provide the original language text in addition.

Try to keep all posts related to Emulation Development such as:
- Emulators you've made
- Cool Tricks/Resources
- Questions
- Blog Posts
